Some dissatisfaction is not actually accumulated over time, but suddenly, the initial dissatisfaction is just some complaints, similar to the kind of complaining, the heart is not much disgusted, but I still want to take it out and say it, express my opinion.

If it is changed after more than 1,000 years, it is actually normal, to classmates, colleagues and leaders, it is inevitable that there will be some complaints behind the scenes, after the complaints are over, how to live or how to live, life will not change because of these complaints behind the scenes.

In the Anxi camp, too, for Gu Qing to be strictly reprimanded, the real dissatisfaction is the generals of the Anxi Army, and some of the middle and low-level soldiers below just vent their verbal dissatisfaction, and after speaking, those who should practice continue to practice, and those who should eat and drink continue to eat and drink.

But the higher-ranking generals were really dissatisfied.

In their opinion, this is a signal given by the imperial court to the Anxi army, which is very bad, and it may cause personnel changes to the Anxi army in the short term in the future.

Personnel changes even include the possibility that Gu Qing will be transferred out of Anxi, and the imperial court will have a new commander to control the Anxi army.

The biggest worry of the generals was that Gu Qing might be transferred, which was by no means good news for them.

Gu Qing has been in Anxi for the past two years, dealing with things fairly, sharing weal and woe with the soldiers, and the means of making money are even more incredible, what is rare is that Gu Qing is generous, and the rewards for the soldiers have always been very generous. Unheard.

What makes the generals even more heartfelt convincing is that Gu Qing has always been open and transparent when discussing merits, for example, after the last time he annihilated more than 20,000 enemy troops in Tibet, Gu Qing summoned all the generals into the tent and told them that the first merit of this battle was Shen Tian, why Shen Tian? Because Shen Tian endured the most difficult, when the enemy was almost completely caught in a passive battle, he could still send troops and horses to come in time to block the back road of the Tubo army's defeat and retreat.

Then Gu Qing asked everyone if they were convinced in front of all the generals.

With Gu Qing's frank way of doing things, how can any of the generals be unconvinced, with such a coach, if there is a war in the future, he will definitely not worry that the coach will take the credit, the benefits are enough, the credit is also enough, he is approachable when there is no war, and treats him as a brother, such a coach is simply perfect.

If the imperial court transfers Gu Qing away, who knows what kind of virtue it is to replace him, no matter who replaces Gu Qing, the generals will feel far inferior to Gu Qing.

This is Gu Qing's charm, silently, he has subdued the military heart.

At night, in the quiet and silent camp of Anxi, the oil lamps in the tent have been extinguished, but the soldiers are still not sleepy, they all open their eyes and look at the pitch-black tent roof, whispering quietly.

"Huo Chang, you said that if Gu Houye is transferred out of Anxi, what should we do?" A young voice whispered.

In the darkness, the impatient voice of the fire chief came: "Eat soldier food, kill the enemy, what else can we do, we can't decide the above things." ”

The young sergeant sighed and said, "Gu Hou Ye is very good, why does Your Majesty want to reprimand him?" ”

There was a voice next to him: "That's it, how generous is the Hou Ye, and he doesn't see us outside, as long as he is willing to work hard, he can still get the usual reward for nothing, eat meat and be full, we have been soldiers for all these years, how have we ever seen such a generous boss." ”

"Phew! You also worry about money and meat, what I admire most about Hou Ye is that he is willing to practice with us rough soldiers, climbing sand, climbing high walls, practicing horizontal bars, everything is not less than us, and it is done steadily, although we are not as fast as we do, but people at least do it, the commander of the first army, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, who will share weal and woe with us like Hou Ye? I have seen many coaches over the years, but I only serve Hou Ye. ”

"I, I'm convinced of Master Hou because he is righteous enough, knows the hardships of our soldiers, and knows how to protect us. Do you know who got these horses, weapons and food from our camp? Hou Ye took office as the deputy marshal of Anxi two years ago, do you know how many things he brought from Chang'an? 10,000 war horses, 20,000 stone grain, and multiple weapons and arrows, tsk, worthy of being the magnates of Chang'an, leading soldiers are so rich. ”

"That's right, with the war horses, weapons, grain and grass brought by Hou Ye, our last ambush of the 20,000 thieves in Tubo was so smooth, all of them were on horseback, a banner was displayed, and our Tang cavalry charged in all directions, and the Tubo army was crushed in less than an hour, if the Anxi army before Hou Ye took office, there were less than 10,000 cavalry, and if you want to ambush the Tubo army so perfectly, dream."

In the tent, the soldiers were talking about Gu Qing's various advantages, and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic.

After chatting for a long time, there was a sudden silence in the tent, and everyone was silent.

I don't know how long it took, when everyone was gradually sleepy, a sergeant suddenly sighed faintly: "The robes in the camp all say that Hou Ye may be transferred out of Anxi by His Majesty, if Hou Ye leaves, I don't know which boss will replace him, will it be as good as Hou Ye to us......"

Another sergeant's tone was slightly fierce and said: "It is impossible to be better than Hou Ye, there is no other commander in the world who can treat us like Hou Ye, Hou Ye is the real soldier like a son, I am only willing to give Hou Ye my life in this life, if I change to someone else, hum." ”

"It's obviously Ge Shuhan's fault, why should it be counted on our Hou Ye? That Heavenly Son of Chang'an is really ......"

Before he finished speaking, the fire chief, who had been silent, suddenly said irritably: "Shut up! Don't you want to die? There are prison guards around Hou Ye, there is a royal history, they are all sent by the Son of Heaven to keep an eye on Hou Ye, if you want to die, don't stop you, don't hurt Hou Ye without holding back! ”

The soldiers in the camp were suddenly alarmed, and they all shut up and did not dare to speak again, and the night was getting dark, and everyone fell asleep.

…………

The same discussion took place in the camps of the Anxi army.

Gu Qing is the commander of the Anxi Army, and he is also the commander of the army, and his stay is directly related to the interests of all officers and soldiers.

Anxi Festival House.

Pei Zhounan sat in the room with a sinking face, and in front of him stood an armored general.

The military general was the general of the 1,000 cavalry he brought from Chang'an, named Chen Shufeng, who was only a brigade commander when he was in Chang'an, and was promoted to lieutenant before leaving Beijing, and he was in charge of the 1,000 cavalry that Pei Zhounan brought out of Chang'an.

Chen Shufeng is not tall, his appearance is quite ordinary, he was inconspicuous when he was in Chang'an, and he came to Anxi only to be appointed by a superior general.

There were only Pei Zhounan and Chen Shufeng in the room.

Pei Zhounan's face was gloomy, and his eyes flashed with an uneasy light, Chen Shufeng's face was expressionless, and his right hand pressed on the hilt of the sword on his waist.

"Got it checked? No wrongful convictions? Pei Zhounan asked in a deep voice.

Chen Shufeng said in a low voice: "It has been clarified, since Gu Hou Ye received the order, the Anxi battalion army has been in turmoil, and the soldiers have talked a lot about slandering the king, and what the last general has found may only be a few, in fact, there will only be more people talking about the king and the court." ”

Pei Zhounan was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Have you ever found out if someone instructed the soldiers behind his back to deliberately talk about the king?" ”

"The last general has not found the person who instructed him, and judging from the current content of the soldiers' discussions, it should be their own discussions, and it seems that no one is behind them."

Pei Zhounan was a little relieved, and his expression was still ugly: "This wind can't be long, if it is allowed to be discussed, it will be difficult to ensure that the Western Army will not mutiny, and if something happens, you and I will not be able to escape the blame." ”

The ruler has always been very sensitive to the army, and the army group often has a psychology and behavior that ordinary people cannot understand, and a small rumor often causes a tsunami-like mutiny, so Pei Zhounan and Chen Shufeng attach so much importance to the discussion of the soldiers of the Anxi Army today.

Chen Shufeng said in a low voice: "Pei Yushi, how should this matter be handled?" ”

Pei Zhounan tightened his eyebrows and said: "Gu Houye has always been unreasonable to maintain his subordinate generals, if he is invited to suppress the soldiers to discuss, I'm afraid he will not want to do it, if we bypass Gu Houye and directly deal with the soldiers of the Anxi Army, Gu Houye will not agree, but we can't allow the Anxi Army to continue to discuss it so blindly, this matter is difficult to handle......

Chen Shufeng said in a deep voice: "Pei Yushi, we are the emperor who is ordered to monitor the Anxi army, the Anxi army is unstable, it should be up to us to make a move, Gu Houye has no reason to stop us, isn't he afraid of the same crime?" ”

Pei Zhounan smiled bitterly: "If Gu Hou Ye is a reasonable person, why am I so embarrassed, after being cheated by him once last time, I know him a little bit, Gu Qing is a person, he will never stick to the rules and the royal law, he seems to be a person who abides by etiquette and knows the law, and he is also gentle and humble, but once his interests are touched, he will immediately turn his face and deny people, and fight with his life......

"Let's suppress the Anxi Army's discussion, what does it have to do with Gu Houye's interests?"

"He is the commander of the Anxi Army, in his eyes, the Anxi Army is his interests, he can beat and scold the soldiers, but others are never allowed to touch a finger of them, otherwise it will be his mortal enemy, General Chen, you have also been here in Anxi for so long, don't you understand Gu Qing's character?"

Pei Zhounan rubbed his face and said with a wry smile: "This matter must be solved immediately, but it can't anger Gu Houye, it's even more difficult." That's it, I'll go and discuss with Gu Houye, if I can convince him, let's take action to deal with a few black sheep and calm down the discussion of the Anxi Army. ”

…………

Gu Qing was busy studying the impact mechanism of the flintlock pistol and the purification of gunpowder, and he hadn't been out of the tent for a few days.

Seeing his mad look, Han Jie was a little anxious, and finally forcibly pulled Gu Qing out of the camp and entered Qiuzi City today.

"Don't pull me, don't force me, let me continue to work, work makes me happy......" Gu Qing's mind was muddy.

"Master Hou, you haven't seen the innkeeper for many days, the female shopkeeper has asked people to talk, she misses you......" Han Jie made up nonsense without changing his face.

"Phew! Is she thinking of me? She's hungry for my body! ”
